Wrapper around TablePrint to adjust columns to the window size
Project description
About
This python3 module aims to add additional functionality to the already amazing TablePrint (github.com/nirum/tableprint).
While TablePrint is functionally excellent at printing out text to the console in a beautiful manner, I have found that it lacks some dynamicism. When printing to a console that is constantly different sizes for example, wrapping the text around produces basically illegible tables.
This module aims to improve the situation where the user is doing data heavy string representation, using data processing packages such as Pandas (which, this module only supports, and also, thank you to nirum for adding in Pandas DataFrame support). Based on the size of the console, and some priorities to each column given by the user, we will squish columns as needed until it fits nicely within the given constraints. When the console width changes, the program will need to be reloaded, but will adjust to fit the new screen.
Installation
You'll have to clone directly from github into your source repo for now. Looking into improving this!
Usage
from dynamictableprint import DynamicTablePrint
import pandas as pd
d = {
'names': [
"Albert Einstein",
"Issac Newton",
"Stephen Hawkings"
],
'places': [
"Ulm, Germany",
"Wolsthorpe Manor, United Kingdom",
"Oxford, United Kingdom"
],
'Foods': [
"Spaghetti",
"Pasta",
"Noodles"
]
}
data_frame = pd.DataFrame(data=d)
dtp = DynamicTablePrint(data_frame, angel_column='Foods', squish_column='places')
dtp.banner('Things!')
dtp.
dtp.write_to_screen()
The squish_column
represents the column that you would like to be squished
first. Typically the 'squish factor' is 20% at most, but will dynamically vary
depending on how the other columns are. The angel_column
is the column that
you would prefer to be modified last, that is, having the highest priority on
being the same.
